What's up in Tokyo

Meiji-jinguThis nationally recognized Shinto shrine is recognized as one of Japan's primary symbols of the country's major religion. Take in the huge 11-meter cypress tree torii (gate) before wandering peacefully along winding paths to the wonderful inner buildings.

Kabuki-zaThis stylized theatre performance consists of elaborate choreography and make-up combined with colorful traditional nagauta music. The plays are dramatic and exciting, though in the 17th century female kabuki performers were banned - men now play the roles of both genders most convincingly.

Space Lab YellowOne of the best sound systems in the city draws a Japanese-strong crowd dressed in weird and wacky outfits. The best DJs have all played a set here.

Lie down and sweat in a room with a radium ore, a stone that emits miniscule quantities of radiation. It's great for detox and improves your health, odd as it sounds.Maida

Japan Rail Pass

Get the JR East 4 day flexipass and you can cover eastern (northern) Honshu, including Niigata, Hirosaki (one of the important castle towns), Aomori (views of Hokkaido), Sendai (Matsushima bay, one of the 3 top sea sights) and Nikko (before you die ;-). The west coast journey from Niigata is worth seeing and you get Tokyo thrown in for free.Han
